Subject: [PATCH 4.19 68/78] KVM: VMX: Dont freeze guest when event delivery causes an APIC-access exit

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@...cent.com>

commit 99b82a1437cb31340dbb2c437a2923b9814a7b15 upstream.

According to SDM 27.2.4, Event delivery causes an APIC-access VM exit.
Don't report internal error and freeze guest when event delivery causes
an APIC-access exit, it is handleable and the event will be re-injected
during the next vmentry.
